Tree trimming request, also requesting to have suckers trimmed, its obstructing the view

Branches are growing around the overhead wires.

Hi,

I wanted to regroup on this matter due to an issue this week.

I wanted to share a photo of a limb that just fell off the tree this week (while we weren't experiencing any bad weather) and missed my house by just a couple of inches. I have picked up many branches in the last several months but this was by far the largest to fall. I am again voicing my concern over this tree and noting that the town is liable for damage that the town tree causes to myself personally or the property if any more branches fall.

I was concerned previously when the tree branches caused a fire with the entangled wires two years ago. The fire department had to come to make sure that the fire didn't spread onto my home.

Now is yet another point of concern - as the amount of branches that fall are increasing significantly.

I moved the limb behind my shed if you would like to view the scale in person. I am so grateful it didn't land on me.

we own 71 and 73 n liberty. two trees seen in photo are town trees. the branches are leaning on the wires. I talked with dale in the spring and would like to have them trimmed.
